4 thoughts on - MWI With PJSIP – Unsollicitated Works Fine, Solicitated Doesn’t

• So I think I am halfway there.

  It seems configuring 100@whatever in the aor turns the MWI subscription from a 401 unauthorized into a 404 not found.

  So I’m guessing the MWI subscribe goes through, since the aor now allows it, but then fails when asterisk actually looks for the mailbox once passes the “security” of mailboxes0@whatever.

  The thing is, the mailbox is only in a table but asterisk definitely sees it (and saves msg with no issues). “Voicemail show users for whatever”
  lists it as being there.

  But the mailbox is neither in voicemail.conf nor users.conf (by design). Is this needed?

  Is there a better place to ask this sort of question?

  Subject: [asterisk-users] MWI with PJSIP – unsollicitated works fine, solicitated doesn’t

  Hi,

  Just recently moved over from chan_sip to PJSIP and am slowly cleaning up whatever needs to be.

  I can’t seem to make sollicitated MWI work, but unsollicitated works fine.

  I got my phones subscribing to mailbox@context (i.e. 100@whatever)

  I have my related AOR entry (realtime, in a DB) set to mailboxes0@whatever . I can see it is set properly by using the command
  “pjsip show aor “

  But when I turn pjsip logger on, I see messages from the phones subscribing and SIP/2.0 401 Unauthorized messages back.

  If I put the same column in my realtime DB (mailboxes) for ENPOINT to the same value (100@whatever) then it works fine, MWI works on the phone.

  For a few reasons I’d like to get MWI working in sollicitated mode instead. Is there a trick to it?

  I upgraded to Asterisk 18.8.0 just to see if a later patch fixed anything, so I am current.

• You’d need to actually show the SIP SUBSCRIBE and show the AOR. It states what is being subscribed to, and if it’s not subscribing to the same name as the AOR then a 404 would be sent.

• Hello Michael,

  I was also struggling with solicited MWI after moving to pjsip. My problem was I was defining mailbox=111@extensioncontext. But the correct context in the mailbox command is to be defined by context in voicemail.conf. My voicemails were all defined in the context default
  (see voicemail.conf) and the mailbox command should look like this:
  mailbox=111@default.

  Hope this helps. I do not know whether this is also your problem.

• Hi Marek,

  Thank you – I figured out my issue, which was that the MWI subscribes to a PJSIP AOR, which in turns monitors a mailbox, not directly an actual mailbox.
